Stanislaus Joyce in Dublin - early 20th Century

from The Dublin Diary of Stanislaus Joyce, page 46:

I love listening to barrel-organs, not piano organs. They have such quaint old airs and they grind them so slowly. They remind me of the south of France, of oranges, of Spain, that I want to live in.
